RUNNING WITH SCISSORS
SYNOPSIS
RUNNING WITH SCISSORS is the hilarious
and poignant feature film based on the
personal memoirs of Augusten
Burroughs. Growing up in the 1970’s,
young Augusten (Joseph Cross) was
living a middle-class existence with an
alcoholic father (Alec Baldwin) and a
bipolar mother (Annette Bening), an
unpublished poet with delusions of
becoming famous. When his parents
divorce, Augusten’s mother sends him to
live with her wildly unorthodox
psychiatrist, Dr. Finch (Brian Cox) and his
eccentric extended family. RUNNING
WITH SCISSORS chronicles Augusten’s
survival under the most extraordinary of
circumstances.
